Beachy Sea Street ~ CCMC402

Aren't these colors just gorgeous together? My mind was going a thousand different directions with this trio. I couldn't decided weather to go floral or funky or fresh and clean. I actually did another card that had a watercolored rose , but it just didn't come together like I had envisioned in my head. So, plan B. I'd been tossing around with different ideas (again, in my head) using {Sea Street} and thought they'd be cool in these colors, so I set out to do a shadow box/sampler type card.

I'm so excited with the way this turned out and I love this set with these colors!

These images are so fun to play with too!

The background stamp is the looooong ago retired {Cheesecloth} stamp, but I just couldn't resist pairing it with these cute, sea images. I tried a couple of different choices in products that were current, but nothing looked quite as good as this did.

The greeting is from the fun set {You're Sublime} and I think it fits perfectly with this theme.

Here's a list of my supplies.....

Stamps: Sea Street, Cheesecloth, You're Sublime

Ink: Soft Suede, Mint Macaron, Lost Lagoon

Paper: Same + white

Accessories: 3/4" and 1" circle punches, Linen thread

I hope you'll have time to join us for this cool color challenge! I can't wait to take a gander at all your creations!
